This director is vindictive.

Chapter 116 I am just purely curious, curiosity makes people progress!

Do you think Wuersan has the ability?
Putting aside the director's personal character and qualities, "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Mojin" is already the ceiling among all "Ghost Blows Out the Light" film and television works.

Some flaws can outweigh the merits, for example, Chen Mo, although a little fickle, but he thinks he is quite good to his woman.

Anyway, he's not getting married, so we're all just friends! Ahem!
But some bottom lines cannot be broken, so no matter how talented and capable he is, Chen Mo will not use him.

He was determined to intercept this opportunity.

It was true that a lot of thought went into making Wuersan, but when it came into Chen Mo's hands, he just took a look at it, and of course that was all he took a look at.

If you have the guts, just go and make a movie to become a god!
Wu Ersan felt very upset about Chen Mo's cold treatment and was very angry for a moment, but that was just a moment of anger.

Even Wang Jun, who was extremely optimistic about him, would not offend Chen Mo just because Wu'ersan left.

Although he didn't understand the specific reason, he was certain that Chen Mo just had an inexplicable dislike for Wuersan.

Since Chen Mo has already decided to shoot the web drama "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Mystical Ancient City", and since it is for practice, he will use the filming method of a movie this time to shoot this web drama.

For the current situation, it can be said that it will definitely be another dimensionality reduction attack.

In fact, it’s not that other directors can’t shoot using film techniques, but the cost doesn’t allow it.

But Chen Mo has no such concerns at all.

When the news came out that Chen Mo's next work was still not a movie, nor a TV series in the traditional sense, but a web drama.

There was another uproar.

Chen Mo's current level of attention can be said to be even higher than that of the top stars in the circle.

Although he has made it clear that he will not continue to play major roles in film and television works in the future, Professor Do's halo has not faded.

If there is a contempt chain in the current film and television industry, then movies are undoubtedly at the top of the chain, followed by TV series. These days, it is not yet the time when the TV power-on rate will be shockingly low in the future.

So TV series still refer to the dramas broadcast on TV stations, but what about web series?
Online dramas these days are not even as good as TV dramas, let alone movies.

Therefore, after this news came out, many people were surprised at Chen Mo's "enthusiasm" and "eccentricity", but they were more curious about what kind of web drama could make Chen Mo, the most popular director who has achieved great success in both movies and TV series, willing to lower himself again to shoot it.

As a result, the novel "Ghost Blows Out the Light" became even more popular again.

For book fans, they are all overjoyed and telling others about it. After all, "My Love from the Star" has been hailed as the ceiling of domestic modern drama production.

Chen Mo was in charge of everything from directing to writing the screenplay to starring in this drama, and it ended up becoming the king of dramas in 2013, bar none.

It became even more popular in Asia, and made a director like Chen Mo become a top star directly because of a drama and a role, and also made Jing Tian, ​​who was always said to have no destiny to become famous, famous.

For a director like this to make the first film or television adaptation of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", is there a higher starting point than this?

No, it doesn’t exist at all!
"I can only say that Chen Mo is worthy of being Chen Mo, his vision is as unique as ever!"

"'Ghost Blows Out the Light' is going to be adapted, and the director is still Chen Mo. As a fan of the book, I can't find any reason not to follow it!"

"The most unprofessional director has become the most popular actor. Just look at the entire entertainment industry, who else can do that? Actually, if Chen Mo is willing, it's not unacceptable for him to play Hu Bayi!"

The reactions of book fans were somewhat beyond Chen Mo's expectations. To put it bluntly, he underestimated the influence of "My Love from the Star".

He can now be said to be hailed by many netizens as the "hexagonal warrior" of the entertainment industry!
First of all, he is tough enough. When he is suppressed and slandered, he will directly overturn the table. He is a pure template of the male protagonist of a cool novel on Qidian.
Secondly, his experience, from a third-rate little star, to success in TV dramas and movies in just three years, creating miracles time and time again, is a model of not bullying the poor young people.

Secondly, Chen Mo is handsome enough, and moreover, he is talented and a real publicity and marketing genius, and his screenwriting ability is also good.

Finally, there is no negative news. Well, it’s not that there is no negative news. There are just a lot of gossips, but they are just gossips after all.

As for the fans of Jiaoshou, Chen Mo's decision to shoot a web drama, a decision that seems incomprehensible to outsiders, has a surprisingly calm reaction.

"No problem, Professor Do from the Star has just this temper."

"It's very Professor Do to not follow the beaten path. I want to think of things you can't understand and do things you can't predict!"

"I'll definitely follow any work by Professor Do!"

"If Chen Mo is willing to star in it, it would be perfect!"

In their opinion, as long as "Professor Do" Chen Mo doesn't follow the rules, anything he does is understandable.

After the news that Chen Mo was going to shoot a web drama came out, several video websites immediately became excited.

The previous "My Love from the Star" was a TV series after all, and the TV station took the biggest share of the first broadcast. But even so, LeTV, which bought "My Love from the Star" at a sky-high price, also earned enough traffic.

And this time, it is a web drama adapted from "Ghost Blows Out the Light". Pay attention, it is a web drama!
The director is Chen Mo again, and it has sparked heated discussions across the Internet before filming even started. This is definitely going to be another hit!

Therefore, before the filming of this drama even started, several major video websites came to the door and wanted to buy the broadcasting rights in advance.

Of course, it was impossible for Chen Mo to settle things so early. It was not the right time now.

The tomb raiders' iron triangle in "Ghost Blows Out the Light", Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang Kaixuan and Shirley Yang, had three most outstanding versions in their previous lives.

One is the iron triangle of "The Lost Tomb". It has to be said that the veteran cadre Jin Dong, whether in his personal image or in the images of the roles he has played in the past, exudes a spirit, sunshine, positive energy, and full of aura, so there are especially many female audiences.

His portrayal of Hu Bayi is actually quite good, but it's just that the flavor is too authentic. It is precisely because of this lingering spirit that the core characteristics of Hu Bayi's character are missing: down-to-earth, ruffian, and down-and-out, lazy and self-deprecating but clear-headed and independent in heart, low-key and calm, but always revealing a sense of calmness, sharpness, delicacy and goodness.

Simply put, he lacks a bit of ruffian spirit, down-and-out vibe, and down-to-earthness.

Of course, it is impossible for a fictional character to perfectly match an actor.

However, these are all the flavors deep within Hu Bayi, and Pan Yueming, another candidate for Hu Bayi, is exactly like this, possessing all of them. Pan Yueming, who grew up and lived in Beijing, speaks with the flavor of the Beijing alleys, but he is not a chatterbox.

However, let's be honest: Pan Yueming has been called the "ugliest" and "most earthy" Hu Bayi in history. While many have chosen to defend him, this is an ironclad fact. In fact, because the image is so different, Chen Mo still remembers that when his previous life's "Longling Mystery Cave" was broadcast, his portrayal of Hu Bayi was widely criticized and questioned. Besides his acting, all the elements associated with Hu Bayi in him were not consistent. Many people think his shortcomings are "down-to-earth," but being down-to-earth doesn't mean being "ruffian," "earthy," "evil," "crude," "vulgar," "vulgar," or even "ugly." While Uncle Pan is down-to-earth, he does lack Hu Bayi's "decency," "elegance," and "righteousness."

But Jin Dong is exactly the opposite of him.

However, judging from the age of Hu Bayi when he appeared in the first original novel, Pan Yueming is indeed a bit too "old".

The other one is Cheng Kun. In fact, in Chen Mo's opinion, the actor who plays Hu Bayi is the closest. But it is a pity that even if the director is Chen Mo, he may not be willing to let Cheng Kun act in the web drama.

There is not much to say about the role of the fat man Wang Kaixuan, but Jiang Chao is quite suitable for him.

As for the heroine Shirley Yang, judging from the original novel, Shirley Yang, as a Chinese who grew up abroad, has a "combination of Chinese and Western" appearance. In this regard, Zhang Yuqi and Shu Qi are suitable. Although Chen Qiaoen is beautiful, she lacks a "sense of exoticism".

Speaking of origins, as the descendant of the Mountain Moving Taoist, Shirley Yang possesses a gentle yet heroic air. This aspect is also quite consistent with Zhang Yuqi and Shu. In this comparison, Chen Qiaoen seems somewhat weak, like a vase.

Overall, Zhang Yuqi, who plays Shirley Yang in the web drama version, seems to be the most suitable candidate at the moment.

And to be honest, Chen Mo was quite curious. What was she thinking when she was acting out her husband's scenes and performing such passionate scenes with other men?

Well, it's just gossip, I don't really have any other thoughts.

However, to use Zhang Yuqi's words, her appearance is very consistent with the original work, with a beautiful appearance, a high nose bridge, deep eyes, and a tall and plump figure. As long as she doesn't speak, she is the most beautiful "Chief of Staff Yang". Of course, the premise is that she doesn't speak, because her lines are a flaw.

Just in this aspect, Chen Mo has a magic weapon, of course, the premise is that she is willing to change and willing to learn.

Mr. Zhang, the best acting instructor, is just a very good tool.

Therefore, Chen Mo finally decided on the iron triangle of the first version of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" tomb raiders, namely Jin Dong, Jiang Chao, and Zhang Yuqi. Because it was the first part and it was only a web series, Chen Mo did not consider the opinions of others and decided on it directly.

This is also brought about by fame and strength. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to have the final say in the crew.

After receiving the olive branch extended by Chen Mo, although it was just a web drama, several people agreed without any hesitation.

According to them, Professor Do has been summoned by a beast, and any hesitation for even a second would be disrespectful to Professor Do.

Jin Dong thought of many opening remarks for the meeting with Chen Mo, but he never expected that Chen Mo's first question would be: "Do you know the Nobel Prize in Mathematics?"

Jin Dong's first reaction was to be dumbfounded.

"What?" He looked at Chen Mo in confusion, completely not understanding why Chen Mo would ask this question.

"Do you know the Nobel Prize in Mathematics?" Chen Mo asked again with a malicious look.

Jin Dong shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm not sure. Director, does this have anything to do with our show?"

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out what the Nobel Prize in Mathematics had to do with "Ghost Blows Out the Light"?
Does finding dragon points require mathematical knowledge?
"Ahem, okay, just a joke." Jin Dong's answer made Chen Mo feel a little boring, so he didn't continue to play with this joke.

I just asked this in advance, but I don't know if this meme will come up again. Well, most likely not, right?

"Have you read "Ghost Blows Out the Light"? " Chen Mo asked.

"I've read it once." Jin Dong answered honestly.

"What do you think is the biggest difference between your character and Hu Bayi's character?" Chen Mo asked again.

"Ruffian and vulgar?" Jin Dong asked uncertainly.

"Yes, your style and appearance are a bit too dignified and elegant."

After sending Jin Dong to attend Teacher Zhang’s acting guidance class, the second key role, Shirley Yang, arrived.

"Director Chen!"

I have to say that Zhang Yuqi's appearance is really compatible with Shirley Yang, and her voice is indeed very charming, but when put on Shirley Yang, this voice actually doesn't sound right.

No wonder everyone said in the previous life that if Zhang Yuqi didn’t speak, she would be the best Chief of Staff Yang, but there is a prerequisite: don’t speak!
"Have you read the novel "Ghost Blows Out the Light"? " Chen Mo asked.

"I have seen it, but I didn't finish it." Zhang Yuqi said honestly.

"How much have you seen?" Chen Mo asked again.

"I've finished watching the first three parts, but I didn't read them in detail," Zhang Yuqi said again.

"That's enough. What do you think is the difference between you and Shirley Yang? Or what is your biggest shortcoming?" Chen Mo continued to ask.

"My voice?" Zhang Yuqi asked uncertainly.

Chen Mo nodded. In fact, Zhang Yuqi's voice was very flavorful and charming, which could be seen in Stephen Chow's "The Mermaid".

How should I put it? It's the kind of voice that can really touch a man's heart.

Moreover, she has a hot body and good looks. Chen Mo is a little puzzled as to why Lao Wang would abandon his beautiful and young wife and instead get involved in the "flesh trade".

"Yes, and your line delivery skills are not good enough. Next, I will arrange an acting instructor for you. You should practice more before the filming starts." Chen Mo nodded.

After talking about work, Chen Mo stared at Zhang Yuqi up and down, a little hesitant. Well, at this time, Chen Mo was purely gossipy and was very curious, but it seemed difficult to ask.

Zhang Yuqi's face turned red when Chen Mo looked at her. As a person in the entertainment industry, she didn't mind something happening with a young, handsome and talented director like Chen Mo, but she was a married woman after all, so she was still quite reserved.

"Director Chen, is there something wrong with me?" She finally couldn't help but ask.

"No, I suddenly thought of a question, but it may be a bit presumptuous." Chen Mo couldn't help but reveal his gossipy heart.

The person was standing right in front of her, and Chen Mo wanted to know too much. After all, those scenes in "White Deer Plain" were nothing special, a little explicit, but not that outrageous. But when she thought that the director was her husband, Lao Wang, Chen Mo couldn't help it.

Well, those who understand will understand, and those who don’t understand will be explained.

"What's the problem?" Zhang Yuqi was also a little confused.

"Well, um, when we were filming 'White Deer Plain', was it really Director Wang who ripped off your bellyband?" Chen Mo finally asked the question that had been buried deep in his heart for a long time.

No matter how relaxed Zhang Yuqi was, her face instantly turned red when Chen Mo asked her such a blunt question.

She was a little confused for a moment. Obviously, she had never expected that Chen Mo would ask this question on the spot.

I was a little dumbfounded.

Which director is so gossipy?
Is it really okay for you to ask this question in front of a woman like me?

But looking at Chen Mo's expectant and gossipy look, Zhang Yuqi couldn't help laughing.

"I didn't expect Professor Do to be such a person!"

Chen Mo didn't feel embarrassed, but said expectantly: "Ahem, well, I'm just curious, purely curious, nothing else. If you think it's presumptuous, I apologize!"

"It's nothing presumptuous. My husband Wang is a drama fanatic. This kind of thing really happened back then." Zhang Yuqi said with some self-mockery.

"Hehe, what were you thinking at that time? He was watching you right next to you, how could you act it out?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

Zhang Yuqi, on the other hand, relaxed and said, "Then what can I do? The role was originally intended for Tang Wei and Fan Binbin, but when they saw that the role involved so many explicit scenes, they rejected it outright.

Then they asked me to act. Actually, it was nothing. It was all for the filming. But he was my husband, and he just stood by and watched. It was very..."

"What?" Chen Mo's heart was overflowing with curiosity.

"Ahem, it was a bit embarrassing and shameful at first, but soon I felt a different kind of excitement." This woman was really fierce. She even winked at Chen Mo while speaking.

Chen Mo felt a little embarrassed. It was such a thrilling feeling.

Just thinking about it, Chen Mo suddenly felt that Wang was a real artist!

Others sacrifice themselves for art, but he is different. He even sacrifices his wife's body for art.

Although it was just in the play, it was a pity that Old Wang was not present, otherwise Chen Mo would have had to ask a few questions.

However, when I think about what happened with Yang Mi, it seemed like it was really exciting with Mr. Liu outside the door!
"Okay, go back and prepare well. Teacher Zhang is very good at coaching acting. You should recharge yourself. I hope there will be a good result by then." After satisfying his gossipy heart, Chen Mo suddenly became serious and said.

Zhang Yuqi felt somewhat relieved but also somewhat disappointed. After all, this was Professor Do! Even if Chen Mo wanted to, she would still refuse. Probably.

Zhang Yuqi couldn't help but look at Chen Mo again, and involuntarily compared him with her own bald old Wang.

Then she became a little withdrawn. Lao Wang is talented, which is what attracts her, but it depends on who he is compared with!
Pity!
Anyway, you will always be restless because of what you can’t get!

Chen Mo really didn't have any thoughts about Zhang Yuqi. Although it seemed like Wei Wu waving a whip, Wei Wu's legacy, Cao Cao the thief and so on, it was very exciting, but it was immoral!
Chen Mo still has this bottom line!
